Synopsis

Description

These functions project a point in the plane onto the surface of a
Riemann Sphere, the one-point compactification of the complex plane.
Each finite point
z
projects to
z
itself.
Every complex infinite value is projected to a single infinite value,
namely to positive infinity on the real axis.
